Your cart is empty.The silk bass clarinet swabs are made with a large plastic coated lead weight allowing the swab to drop through the instrument without hanging up in the large key holes. It is capable of cleaning the entire instrument. Because of the bass clarinet"s length, the swab is designed to clean the neck separately.

My son told me that this is for an oboe not a clarinet, according to his music teacher. The pull piece doesn’t go through the mouth hole.

Typically effective and awesome swab. I like the silk swabs better than cotton cloth or other fabric because it really absorbs moisture quickly.The only downside is the silk may be a tiny bit more prone to snagging on any internal vent pips or imperfections inside an instrument. But if you're careful and make sure the swab isn't twisted or wadded that shouldn't be an issue.

I am so picky when it comes to my instruments that I use to make my own swabs. The Hodge swabs are the best on the market. I have several and require them of my students.

The Hodge Silk Swab I bought for my bass clarinet in red ten years agao is still in great shape after daily use for 10 years and many hand washings. I just bought a new purple swab ... well because I wanted a change of color. The swab is wide enough and absorbent enough to clean out a bass clarinet with two passes through. The cording and the weight are quite long and durable - I have to remove the bell and the neck and clean them separately.I also tried the Hodge Bari Sax Swab for my Bass Clarinet neck piece, just because I also own a Bari Sax. It works great!In summary: Durable, Efficient, Cost-Effective, Lots of Colours, Prevents Stinkiness, Easy & Fast to Use.
